SYRINGE.
Application filed October 4, 1926. Serial No. 139,244.
This invention relates to syringes, and more especially to a piston or plunger type of syringe. I
The objects of this invention are:
First, to produce a piston packing that will automatically give a leakproof packing in bores of varying diameters;
Second, to produce a piston which, owing to its peculiar construction, can be easily entered into the bore of a syringe without injury to the packing;
Third, a piston which will act equally efficiently in both pressure and suction.
In carrying out this object, I provide a piston head Or packing member which is of elastic and compressible material, having a thin section contacting with the surface which forms the sliding joint, and a relatively thick section exposed to the action of pressure or vacuum within the syringe, whereby compression of the thick section will create a tendency to expand the packing member in a direction to force the thin section into intimate contact with the surface over which it slides.
In the accompanying drawings,
Fig. 1 shows a longitudinal central sectional view of a portion of a piston and barrel having a head or packing member embodying one form of my invention;
Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 show a modified form of piston head or packing member;
Fig. a shows a still further modificat on;
Fig. 5 shows a central longitudinal sectlonal view of a modified form, wherein the packing member is in the form of a throat-washer carried by the cylinder or barrel, and has a thin edge contacting with a sliding plunger.
In general, the invention comprises a barrel 10, and a piston plunger 11, thelatter having a stem 12 upon which an elastlc and compressible head or packing member 13 is mounted. This head or packing member has a thin section lt in contact with the walls of the cylinder, and a thickened section 15 adjacent the stem, with the front face thereof exposed to the pressure within the barrel. The rear face of the member 13 is spaced from the end of the plunger to leave a space within the barrel will compress thethickened section of the head, thereby tending to enlarge its diameter so as to insure proper contact of the thin edge with the walls of the barrel. The contacting edge being attenuat ed, creates very little friction, and insures smooth operation. The space-16 back of the head allows thelatter to be deflected as shown in dotted lines in Fig.1, so as to prevent too much friction between the head and barrel. The force acting to expand the head and the force acting to deflect it will be balanced, and thus an ideal condition is maintained at the sliding joint. I
On the suction stroke the vacuum on the back side of the piston head will tend to compress the thickened section, thus enlarging the diameter of the head and deflecting the thin edge, as shown in dotted lines to the left of Fig. 1.
As indicated in Figs. 2 and 3, the same size headwill function in barrels varying considerably in diameter. In either case a thin edge contact is formed between the head and barrel, so that excessive friction is avoided. I
In Fig. 5 the packing member is on the barrel and is in the form of a throat-whsher 17, concavo-concave in form, with its perimeter held in place in a groove 18 on the barrel by means of a nut 19. The thin edge contacts with the plunger 11, and the end of the barrel is beveled as shown at 20, so that pressure within will tend to compress the washer 17. The periphery of the washer being defined by the barrel,'it results that the compression of the walls of the washer will cause the thin edge to expand radially in the direction of the plunger, so as to bring about a condition substantially like that illustrated 'in the other forms.
It will be seen from the foregoing that I have provided a piston head or packing member capable of automatically adjusting itself to larger or smaller diameters without producing excessive friction. It maintains a line or thin edge contact at all times at the sliding joint, but acts as well on suction as on ejection. Being compressible and elastic, the packing member or head can easily be inserted within the barrel without danger of injury. Such a piston is ideally suited for use in connection with glass barrel syringes.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a syringe of the piston type, a pack the surface of one of said elements to form a sliding joint, and a relatively thick section exposed to pressure Within the barrel,
whereby there will be a tendency to compress the packing member axially, resulting in a corresponding expansion radially, said packing member being free to be deflected sufiiciently to cause a corner of the thin, fiat section to engage the co-operating' surface.
2. In a syringe of the piston type, a packing for the piston comprising an elastic and compressible member having a thin fiat section for contact With the surrounding barrel and a thickened section exposed to pressure Within the barrel, whereby there Will be a tendency to compress the packing member axially, resulting in an expansion radially, said packing member being free to be deflected sufliclently to cause a corner of the thin,
flat section to engage the cooperating surface. a V 1 8. Inasyringe of the piston type, a plunger, a head carried on the plunger and formed of elastic and compressible material, said head having a thin fiat section contacting with that a corner of the thin, flatsection ill engage the barrel. a GEORGE N.-IIEIN.-
